Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

We are joined by Will Gore, Deputy Managing Editor of the Independent and Evening Standard, to read his piece about the Finsbury Park Mosque attack and to discuss how the media reports on terror and why the public are losing faith in the press.

Double Take is a podcast in which we return to our favourite comment pieces. Each week an author comes into the studio to read their column, and we’ll catch up with them about what happened after we clicked publish.
